We read When will there be good news? by Kate Atkinson in March. It is a mystery set in in the Edinburgh area with an interesting set of characters, some familiar to readers of her other books and some new ones. It was entertaining and gripping at the same time. Everyone enjoyed it and some people were spurred on to read some of her other books including Behind the scenes at the museum.
April's book is Speaking of Love by Angela Young.

Cathy MacPhail
We took 15 S3 pupils to hear the author Catherine MacPhail speak at Kilmarnock Academy. Despite arriving late, she chatted away for nearly an hour and answered questions from an enthusiastic audience. She spoke mainly about the Nemesis series and her new books.
